| The inconsisitency and hypocracy comparing the first years of Weis and Willingham is astounding. ND was 7-0 with a victory of FSU this time during Willinghams first year and ND didn't give Willingham a 10 year contract. I don't want to knock Weis, he has done a good job but people need to relax and watch. After year two or three then we can judge Weis and his ability to coach. |

After being labeled as racially insensitive last year, signing Weis to a long-term deal just doesn't make ND look very good.

| The debate is continued further by playing the whole "Those are Willinghams recruits" card against the "Ty couldn't win with his recruits" hand.

| I agree this has been a great debate since early this season. I don't know if it was a racial thing or not but you have to let a coach at least get his first full recruiting class through. I think Tyrone Willingham did a nice job at ND and caught a pretty raw deal. I guess we'll just have to wait at see how Charlie Weiss does over the long haul.

| Like Weis or not, what he did for that young ND fan in Washington was a CLASS ACT if there ever was one. Huge props to the man for doing that, one of the best...if not the best story to come outta college football this year. You're a good man Charlie Weis. |

| excuse me while I take my proverbial foot out of my mouth. I can't believe I haven't heard that story yet. Now I feel like a total shmuck for my petty comments. While I still think he's over-rated as a coach, he obviously has some character going on. And how sad of a story is that? The poor child dies before seeing the game? Augh. That kicked me in the gut. It sure puts it into perspective...me bitching about what bowl you go to, etc., while sick children are literally trying to stay alive for just one more game. humble pie. |

| You know what the funny thing is? Weiss had visited my school just recently and I did not even know it. Here is proof: http://www.bishopgorman.org/ Like I said before, my school is a magnet for Division 1A in ALL sports.

| Oh yeah, coaches and scouts come here all of the time. A couple of months ago I saw an Oklahoma scout. Last year, there was a whole bunch of San Diego State scouts at one of our basketball games recruiting an eventual commit Kashif Watson. My school has 924 students.

I wouldn't nec. say he is a bad coach, infact I'd say he is def. above average. But you're right when you say he doesn't deserve all he gets credit for until he proves he can win the ones that aren't against a sub-%.500 team. |
